I got everything so far working and installed by following these steps:
as first backup your old mysql databases, than uset his command:
Code: Select all
sudo apt-get install mariadb-server
you will be asked after to migrate your current mysql to mariadb, press yes and follow instructions than
run mysql_upgrade (by default the install will run it), if not run it then,
than use

Code: Select all
sudo cat /var/lib/mysql/mysql_upgrade_info
for geting php7 follow this tutorial:
Code: Select all
https://forum.vestacp.com/viewtopic.php?t=13053
it had some problems with phpmyadmin, http 500 error, fixed it with:
configure apache so that it can find it correctly:
Code: Select all
nano /etc/apache2/sites-available/000-default.conf
Anywhere after "DocumentRoot /var/www/html" insert these line:
Alias /phpmyadmin "/usr/share/phpmyadmin/"
<Directory "/usr/share/phpmyadmin/">
Order allow,deny
Allow from all
Require all granted
</Directory>
Restart Apache:
and final
Code: Select all
sudo apt-get install php-mbstring php7.0-mbstring php-gettext
sudo service apache2 restart
